I have encountered the virus 1813 here at my school. Does anyone out there know anything about this virus. This was detected using the Virscan program by IBM. I think this virus may be related to the "Friday the 13th" virus. Any comment out there. Please post in the news group since some people may be interested. Thanks Doug

The 1813 virus is the same virus that is commonly called "the Jerusalem virus". It is the most widespread of a number that activate on Friday the 13th, so it's sometimes called the "Friday the 13th" virus. That's not a very good name, though, since there's more than one virus that it fits. Stick with "1813" or "Jerusalem"! *8) DC
